Hi Tweerers,
Well, I was able to see the Baikal yesterday and what a beautiful face he has. A georgous bird. Thanks to some friendly birders with scopes on the top of the south tower in Kent Ponds. Thank you.

I am very curious after reading about them in my Encyclopedia of North American birds. The book says most likely he had escaped from someones collection. Or would he have migrated down from Alaska? Does anyone have any feedback here?
